Don't get me wrong. Since my daughter was born she has been nothing but amazing. Despite giving birth at what is considered a young age, she is my little miracle. Let's backtrack:
Ever since I was diagnosed with Crohn's disease at 16, I've always wondered if I could have a baby. Or at least safely. You see, my paternal grandmother, who also has Crohn's, had uterine cancer not long after having my father. I sometimes feel like I could have the same health problems as she has had. She's also had breast cancer. She is a survivor, definitely.
After my major surgery this July, I now have more to think about. I can have another baby, but the pregnancy may not be as easy as my last. Random: how weird would my huge scar look with a huge belly?! Heh.
I'm off track here but this is something I definitely wanted to blog about as well. Something "off my chest". More tomorrow.
